Conclusions
I was rather pleased with the Nitrogon P4 cooler. Although at first glance it
looks like an Overclocker’s heatsink, I get the feeling that this one is
intended more for the power user and maybe the HTPC market. The Nitrogon is
impressively effective in a fanless setup given the right amount of
consideration to airflow. I’ll certainly have to bug my contact over at
Silverstone to see if I can get my hands on a SST-TJ06, the case this heatsink
was really designed to be used with. On the bad side, I was rather
disappointed to have to give up my exhaust fan to use this unit, even though
it is very obvious the engineers on this project were trying to get the
cooling fins as close to the power supply fan or exhaust fan as possible.
Hopefully this clearance issue will be something that Silverstone will take
into account on their next heatsink. If you are looking to get your PC as
quiet as possible, I would definitely give this heatsink some serious
consideration as long as your physical setup can accommodate it. EM
